Gosh, I wish I were better at coming up with post titles…
I had an email yesterday inquiring about some details of Scriblio. As I wrote back, answering her questions, it occurred to me that it was exactly the kind of thing it’s easy for me, so close to the project to take for granted [...]

It seems strange to me that there isn’t a super slick solution for calendaring/events management tasks within Wordpress.

As I’ve mentioned I’m very close to earning my MLIS. I’ve just begun my final class, a ’studio class’ taught by David Lankes called Planning and Creating a Digital Library (IST 759).
